Welcome to the Deafness Forum of Australia
Established in early 1993 at the instigation of the Federal government, the Deafness Forum is the peak body for deafness in Australia. We now represent all interests and viewpoints of the Deaf and hearing impaired communities of Australia (including those people who have a chronic disorder of the ear and those who are DeafBlind).
We highly recommend you subscribe to our free One In Six E-news, or perhaps even consider signing up to become a member!
